Evan-Moor Daily Language Review, Grade 5 Teaching Edition

Good for homeschool

I used the Daily Language Review as a weekly homework assignment with my students. It was amazing to see how much they improved from the beginning of the year to the end. I'm definitely going to incorporate it again this year. Thank you for a great product!

Students enter the room an begin their DOL as a daily routine. Whole group we discuss our answers based on student response. This opens dialogue for what makes their choices correct and/or incorrect. You have the option to follow the weekly schedule or correlate to a specific language arts area.

I use this as a daily warm up when students enter the class. Then we go over it. I allow students to correct their mistakes and we talk about why the answer is what it is. I then give a quiz on Fridays over the DLR. I make the quiz by cuting and pasting five or six questions that we did On Monday-Thursday. Love this book. It is fantastic for spiraling skills and quick mini-lessons on grammar rules. I have the enhanced .PDF file and use it on the Smartboard. It works great. NO Problems!!!!!!

I use with document reader as Do Now to introduce lesson. I also use as informal assessments. Engeges students, students monitor their progress and are actively involved with their efforts to reach their goals. I recommend this product. I have both the book and the %delete. preser the %delete. I am ordering more great, effective products from Evan MOore

I use this as a 5 minute warm-up before writing workshop. I've found that it is a great reveiw and practice of grammar skills and conventions. Students have to apply what they know and also learn new skills. I like the fact that the skills repeat throughout the weeks so that students get continual practice and review.

I use Daily languages Review everyday. The students get right to work and then we correct the page together. I have used this product in the 3rd grade for the last 8 years. I'm moving to 6th grade this year, so I just brought the 6th grade Daily Language Review.

I'm using this book with the student workbook for my two home schooled boys. We are having a lot of fun. They complete the activity and then trade books to check the answers. It's fun to watch them process the problems a second time when they notice their answers don't match. It's amazing how many mistakes they miss when editing the sentences. But I am confident this process will train them to pay closer attention and make fewer mistakes in their writing.

I use the pages for daily, independent morning work. I appreciate the clearly labeled pages, the pattern of two proofreading sentences with their increasing difficulty and the variety of topics covered. Occasionally, there are terms we don't use or haven't introduced yet. For example, we don't use predicate and contractions aren't introduced until the second marking period. These don't make a big impact, however. In the beginning of the year, I give clues as to how many mistakes are in the sentences. That seems to help most of my students get used to proofreading.

I just wish that at the beginning of each week there would be a list of all of the things to cover before assigning the Daily Language Review. Every once in a while I am caught off guard and there is a question about a topic that I haven't quite covered yet. Just a quick reference sheet for teacher's for the week for make this book my favorite!
